Ducks done or ready to make me look foolish?

There, it has been stated emphatically and for the record. Someone had to come out and make it official.

Done, done and done. If they were any more through, they'd be the month of February, which is still ticking today only because it's a leap year.

OK, now that I've predicted their demise, the Ducks can get busy making me look foolish.

By declaring their 2011-12 season deceased – official cause of death: self-inflicted gun-shy wound (see, for nearly three months, this offense couldn't pull the trigger) – I am, in fact, breathing life into their gasping, empty lungs.

More than anything Corey Perry could provide, my guarantee that this group will not make the playoffs only guarantees that the Ducks have at least one final, dramatic push left in them.
